Summum Bonum from "Asolando" by Robert Browning brought to you by Rachel Sanfordlyn Shreckengast

---

All the breath and the bloom of the year
In the bag of one bee
All the wonder and wealth of the mine
In the heart of one gem
In the core of one pearl all the shade
And the shine of the sea
Breath and bloom, shade and shine, wonder, wealth,
And how far above them
Truth that's brighter than gem
Trust that's purer than pearl,
Brightest truth, purest trust in the universe
All were for me
In the kiss of one girl.

Best Wishes,
Rachel Sanfordlyn Shreckengast
